The results of "peacekeeping"
Peacekeeping troops guarding refugee camps in the Democratic Republic of Congo sexually abused girls as young as 13, giving out scraps of food or money in return for favours, the United Nations admitted yesterday.
A bar of chocolate or two eggs was the accepted payment for sex with young girls.

Many were orphans from a war that has claimed more lives than any since 1945.

Constitution Article 1-3
The Union's objectives-
subsection 4.

In its relations with the wider world, the Union shall uphold and promote its values and interests. It shall contribute to peace, security, the sustainable development of the Earth, solidarity and mutual respect among peoples, free and fair trade, eradication of poverty and protection of human rights and in particular the rights of the child, as well as to strict observance and to development of international law, including respect for the principles of the United Nations Charter.

Its quite a challenge to deal with global security when so many middle and high ranking military officers are on cocaine or profiting from the drugs trade.
Its quite a challenge to deal with the inalienable universal rights of the child to childhood free of sexual exploitation and exposure to HIV/AIDS/HEP.

Pirates love challenges.
Thats why they kept taking on Asterix and co.
